	The Boeing Sea Knight & Chinook
		The Model 360 resembled the Sea Knight in a general way, but was more the size of the Chinook, and vastly more sophisticated and capable than either the Sea Knight or the Chinook.
		Many current Marine Sea Knights have defensive countermeasures, including missile warning systems and chaff-flare dispensers, but it is unclear when and how they were fitted.
		During the 1980s, the Marine and Navy Sea Knight fleets were given a broad set of updates in the form of the "safety, reliability, and maintainability (SRandM)" program, and late in the decade they were also given an airbag flotation system to improve their seaworthiness.
